What Spolarna does

Spolarna (legal entity Skånska Högtrycksspolarna AB, Org.nr 556623-1568) is a drain and sewer maintenance service provider headquartered at Tueängsvägen 15 in Kristianstad, Sweden. Founded in 2002, the company operates across the Skåne and Blekinge regions with active projects in southern Småland, serving private villa owners, housing cooperatives (BRF:er), property management companies, and municipal entities. Since 2019 it has been a subsidiary of Wall to Wall Group, the Nordic region's leading conglomerate for innovative property solutions. Spolarna reports that it has operated for over 20 years and holds an AAA credit rating.

The company's technical core is high-pressure hot-water pipe jetting (rörspolning/stamspolning) delivered without chemical additives, marketed as environmentally sustainable and gentle on aging cast iron pipework. The service portfolio includes CCTV drain inspection (filminspektion/rörinspektion), ultrasound pipe wall thickness measurement (godsmätning) for corrosion assessment on cast iron pipes, moisture detection (fuktindikering), mechanical descaling and root cutting (fräsning/rotskärning), sewage and stormwater suction (slamsugning), and pipe location surveys (ledningssökning). Relining (pipe-in-pipe rehabilitation using Sacpipe and infodring methods) is delivered through sister company Repipe Sverige AB, a BRiF member within the Wall to Wall Group. Operations are run from 14 service locations spanning Helsingborg, Landskrona, Lund, Malmö, Trelleborg, Ystad, Simrishamn, Eslöv, Hässleholm, Kristianstad, Sölvesborg, Ronneby, Karlshamn, and Karlskrona, with 24/7 emergency dispatch lines for Skåne and Blekinge.

Spolarna generates revenue primarily through project-based professional services — one-off jetting, inspection, suction, and emergency blockage calls — priced via fixed upfront quotes (typical villa jetting ~1,500–2,000 kr after ROT-avdrag; emergency blockage ~2,000 kr; BRF/multi-family contracts quoted per project). A recurring subscription-style stream runs through "All Inclusive" service agreements with property owners and BRF:er, bundling preventive flushing, video inspection, annual consultation, 24/7 emergency response, and discounts on additional work and materials under multi-year fixed-fee terms. Enterprise/framework contracts anchor the segment, exemplified by the AB Kristianstadsbyggen ramavtal covering 9,300+ apartments and 230 commercial premises across 16 locations in Kristianstad municipality. The company's customer base spans individuals (ROT-eligible), private housing cooperatives such as BRF Högaholm Malmö (994 apartments) and Brf Båten (83 apartments), property managers including Bredablick Förvaltning AB, and infrastructure clients such as NRC Group / Trafikverket. Marketing is conducted primarily through the company's SEO-structured website with per-city landing pages, phone-based direct sales, and word-of-mouth referrals, with hiring coordinated through the Wall to Wall Group careers portal.

Products and services

• Rörspolning och stamspolning (Pipe and Main Drain Jetting) High-pressure water jetting service that cleans and flushes drain pipes using hot water without chemicals. Used for both preventive maintenance (underhållsspolning every 3-5 years) and emergency blockage resolution. The low-pressure, high-flow method is gentle on older cast iron pipes.
• Filminspektion (Video Pipe Inspection) Camera-based inspection of drain pipe interiors to identify cracks, settlements, root intrusions, deposits, and other damage not visible from the outside. Performed after cleaning for exact diagnosis and clear action recommendations. Offered as standalone or bundled with jetting.
• Akut spolbil (Emergency Drain Service) 24/7 emergency response service with equipped drainage vehicles (spolbilar) for rapid deployment when drain blockages occur, minimizing water damage risks. Available across Skåne and Blekinge with response times demonstrated as short as 20 minutes on weekends.
• Avloppsrensning (Drain Cleaning / Mechanical Descaling) Drain cleaning service using mechanical tools (rotating cutting heads, chain tools), root cutting, and milling equipment to remove blockages caused by grease, sediment, rust, foreign objects, calcified deposits, or ice plugs that cannot be cleared by water jetting alone.
• Slamsugning (Sewage Suction) Vacuum truck service for emptying and cleaning sewage wells and stormwater drains, removing sludge, gravel, and sediment. Slambilar pump material directly into vehicle tanks, designed to access tight spaces without damaging gardens or plantings.
• Ledningssökning (Underground Pipe Locating) Underground pipe locating service that uses modern equipment to trace and mark the exact position of sewer and stormwater pipes on properties where documentation is missing, helping prevent costly damage during excavation or landscaping.
• Fuktindikering (Moisture Indication) Initial moisture testing service performed by Spolarna staff to detect indications of moisture and leaks that may be related to deficiencies in the sewage system.
• Godsmätning (Pipe Wall Thickness Testing) Ultrasound-based measurement of cast iron pipe wall thickness to determine the extent of internal corrosion and remaining service life of aging drainage systems in older buildings.
• Relining (Pipe Rehabilitation) Pipe rehabilitation service offered in partnership with sister company Repipe Sverige AB. New pipes are installed inside existing damaged pipes without demolition (pipe-in-pipe), matching the lifespan of new plastic pipes. Cost-effective alternative to full pipe replacement (stambyte).
• Serviceavtal - All Inclusive (Service Agreements) Comprehensive maintenance contracts (All Inclusive) for property owners and housing cooperatives (BRF:er) covering scheduled drain cleaning, video inspection, annual consultations, 24/7 emergency service, 20% discount on additional work, and 10% discount on materials. Offered at fixed monthly or annual cost based on property size and needs.

Broad incumbents

• Caverion Sverige: Caverion is a Nordic building solutions and technical maintenance provider with substantial plumbing and drainage service offerings. It competes for the same multi-family housing and municipal contracts as Spolarna, though as a much larger player with broader service portfolio.
• Assemblin Sverige: Assemblin is a major Nordic technical installation and facility services provider, including plumbing and pipework services. It commonly takes over construction projects after Spolarna's emergency inspections (as documented in the Kristianstad case), illustrating the customer handoff between Spolarna's diagnostic service and Assemblin's installation work.
• Veolia Sverige: Veolia is a global water, wastewater, and environmental services provider with Swedish operations. It serves municipalities and large property owners with utility-scale services, representing a much larger incumbent that targets overlapping enterprise customers.
• Comfort (kedjan): Comfort is a Swedish cooperative chain of HVAC and plumbing contractors, including drain cleaning and sewer services. It offers broader technical services than Spolarna but covers the same underlying customer need for residential and small commercial plumbing/drain maintenance.

Regional players

• NCC Infrastructure: NCC is a major Swedish construction company that occasionally subcontracts drainage and infrastructure maintenance work (such as Spolarna's night-shift work for NRC Group/Trafikverket at Kristianstads bangård). It is comparable as a regional customer channel for Spolarna's infrastructure drainage services.

Direct peers

• Bravida Sverige: Bravida is the largest Nordic multi-technical facilities services provider, including plumbing, drain, and sewer services for commercial and residential properties. It directly competes with Spolarna for service agreements with BRF:er, property owners, and municipal housing companies, though at much larger scale and across all of Sweden/the Nordics.
• Axima: Axima is a major Swedish provider of HVAC, plumbing, and technical installation services, including drain and sewer services for multi-family housing and commercial properties. It targets the same BRF and property management customer segments as Spolarna and operates in overlapping geographies including Skåne.

Others

• Repipe Sverige AB: Repipe is Spolarna's sister company within Wall to Wall Group, specializing in relining (pipe-in-pipe rehabilitation). Spolarna refers relining customers to Repipe as part of a comprehensive drain service offering, making Repipe a closely affiliated ecosystem partner rather than a competitor.

Emerging players

• Relita AB: Relita is a Swedish waste and recycling services company that also performs sludge and liquid waste pumping (analogous to Spolarna's slamsugning). It overlaps with Spolarna's sewage suction and stormwater drain services in the south Swedish market.
• Aarsleff Ground Engineering (Per Aarsleff A/S): Aarsleff is a Danish foundation and pipe rehabilitation specialist active in the Swedish market, providing CIPP relining as a direct alternate to Repipe. Comparable as a Nordic peer in the trenchless pipe rehabilitation segment that Spolarna facilitates through partnerships.
